eBay sales down 60% for last 6 months

[User220]

Hi my ebay account used to sell 16-18k in 90 days but for the last 6 months or so sales haves dropped to like 8-9k. From 15-20 items a week to 3-4 items

I see my prices are cheaper but other sellers have sold same items at higher prices but my items still not sold.

My feed back is 99-4%. I got those messages from eBay saying your item not described and item no received rates are very high. They been charging me way more then 10% fees too. Also my global shipping has been turned off

Do your search results put your listings lower down if you performance not as good or are they hiding some of my listings ?

Any help please

Thanks

I think your account in below Standard. Even if you sell ebay will charge you more and you cant find list on ebay.

Go on and buy some watchers or views on a five dollar site, your listings will rank higher, and put 5% promoted ads.
Sales will shoot up.

Not sure if OP will see you message - dated thread

Ebay traffic is controlled by bots maybe your account has been flagged for some reason like dropshipping.

Ebay traffic is still increasing year over year especially with covid.

If your sales dropped its because of the bots not because ebay is less popular

My sales were flying then got hit with mc011 took me 10 days to get the account reinstated. Since I’ve been back made hardly any sales it’s only been 3 days though do you think it’s just a case of things getting going again or eBay bots ?

Theres your issue. So the bots automatically limit your sales when your account runs into any issues. If you're dropshipping try selling items you have on hand with unique content and good prices. Or list a bunch of auctions and wait it out. Idk...

He'd get crushed on Amazon. Amazon is no place for anyone who can't meet eBay's standard.
